Every time I type a URL into a message and click either the link or link[^] button to format it, the actual link has a '"' character appended to the end resulting in a malformed link which I have to manually correct before posting. For example,
www.codeproject.com
Am I the only person experiencing this problem or is it already known by the admins ?
FYI, I'm using Firefox 2.0a.

How about having a forum or Page for commonly asked questions?
It could probably be from a set of questions frequently asked, or it could be updated by users on howto do something, it would be like a miniature article but not with that much detail.

I would agree with you that most of them would do that.
But if we can atleast get 20-30% to check that page, or atleast redirect these people to go thru that page, it would be a start.
I find a lot of questions which turn out to be very silly and irritating for an advance programmer. Lots of question are left unanswered and they could find the answer in that page.

I was just browsing the suggestions, and noticed that there are frequent requests for "this or that" forum. Has The Code Project ever considered an area for User Defined Forums? (or some such hodgepodge) I'm sure there would be many ramifications with this, but it is a thought.

User defined forum?

Here's why:
http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?msg=1475364&forumid=2605#xx1475364xx[^]
About 18 months ago someone posted my (and some other CPians) email addresses on a public forum under the subject "People I hate" - probably someone we argued in The Soapbox with. Luckily for me, it was an old email address, but I'll wager that the enormous amount of spam that address gets nowadays is probably related to this childish behaviour. If email addresses are removed from the mails you send when replying to a post, then this situation could be avoided in future.
Thoughts?

How can you be sure that the email address was taken from the codeproject?

It may just be a coincidence, but at least 18 of the people on the list I recognise as CPian's.

Interesting Idea Rob, and I can see why you want it. But on the other hand...
A few months ago, I sent you some Java books, and you sent me a STL book. We sorted that out off site, getting each others email addresses from CP post's. We wouldn't be able to do that sort of thing if CP didn't include the senders email address. Just something to consider.
How's the Java course going by the way?

True, but thanks to some childish individual, my old email account is getting hundreds of spam messages a day - if I were still using it, I'd be mighty upset. Tough call, but I'm sure Chris and co. could come up with something.

Very well thanks! Got 99% for my first assignment, and I am just about to submit my second. Coming from a C++ background, it isn't hard to pick Java up. It will get more interesting later on in the course though, once I start learning more about the language and the various helper classes (collections, etc.).

It will be nice if an option is provided for the user to have a filter on the questions posted by him/her.It will be easy to locate the answers for the questions otherwise seaching is very dificult.
